Cooking Sessions

“Together we can bring the family back to the dinner table”
Chef Nick Cavataio
 

 

     Come join local Cookbook author Chef Nick Cavataio for monthly Freezer Cooking Sessions.  No more racking your brain trying to figure out “What’s for dinner"?  Learn how to prepare healthy entrees for your family.  

     Chef Nick is bringing a creative concept to the Southern Tier of New York with easy to assemble entrees that eliminates menu planning, shopping, prep-work and cleanup by moving the entree assembly process out of people’s kitchens and into Once A Month Cooking Session.

     Rotate through recipe stations, scooping freshly cut and prepped raw ingredients into the provided baking pans or gallon-sized zip-top bags. Label your assembled entrees, take home and freeze.  Appropriate cooking instructions included.  The whole process takes approximately two hours and costs $198 for 12 Entrees each serving 4-6 people (a total of 48-72 servings) or $119 for 6 Entrees each serving 4-6 people (a total of 24-36 servings), which is less than $3.00 per serving.   Or for an extra $25 let Chef Nick and his staff assemble your meals, all you have to do is pick them up.

     You will be able to provide your families with nutritious, wholesome, home-cooked meals with less stress. Some of the other benefits include quick and easy cleanup, fewer trips to the grocery store (less impulsive buying), saving time and money, and increased opportunities to enjoy family dinners.

Chicken Enchilada Casserole – A Mexican favorite.  Flour tortillas layered with tender boneless skinless chicken breast meat, chopped onion, green chilies and smothered with a creamy south-of-the-border white sauce. 

 Fresh Breaded Fish Fillets – It doesn’t get any easier than this!  Dip these fresh fish fillets in a smooth egg batter, dredge in seasoned breadcrumbs and this healthy dish is freezer bound. 

 Sweet & Sour Chicken Breast  - Boneless, skinless chicken breast prepared to perfection on the stovetop in less than 30 minutes..   

 Turkey Meat Loaf ­ Flavorful and healthy. SO easy to mix up, freeze and bake later for a quick meal!

 Crunchy Chicken Strips – A quick and easy sweet orange sauce coats chicken fingers that could work as an appetizer or an entree

 Greek Grilled Smoked Turkey & Cheese ­ A Greek influenced spin on the great American classic grilled cheese. Simple, easy and soooo scrumptious.

 Pork BBQ – The ultimate in unattended cooking.  Pork roast simmers all day in your slow cooker on top of our  homemade spiced BBQ sauce.   

 Sloppy Joes – Kid-friendly and still filling enough for the whole family. 
   
Steak Teriyaki - Six lean, juicy steaks ready to grill or pan sear, glazed with a tangy Teriyaki sauce with hints of garlic, ginger and sesame.

Smothered Baked Pork Chops – A casserole of six pork chops in our tomato based sweet & sour madness at its best, baked unattended and on the table in 30-45 minutes, record time.
  
  Mac ‘n’ Cheese - Your kids will love this hearty, satisfying dinner loaded with cheddar cheese and small shell macaroni.  It’s classic American comfort food from Chef Nicks’ kitchen.

Tuna Noodle ­ Quick and Easy, Kid friendly and for the whole family Casserole.

 Baked Sesame Fish Fillets – Sesame seeds add a nutty sweetness to the fish fillets, while tarragon gives it a anise-like flavor.
